I picked one up from Telus and unlocked it to use on Fido. I'm actually really happy with this phone. The build quality is solid, has a nice weight to it, and the aluminum back is a very nice touch. I thought the push buttons would bother me as I had only played with the HTC Surround prior which has capacitive buttons, but the push buttons work quite well.
My only gripe is the position of the USB connector, though it's odd spot seems to be a common trend for WP7 devices. No one ever though of releasing docks for these things in the future when they designed them.
The only other issue is that since the phone is now unlocked, it doesn't contain network profiles for Rogers or Fido, so MMS won't function, and the phone needs to have data roaming turned on as it's not operating on Telus. It does contain a network profile for Bell, so if you're thinking of unlocking it and using it on Bell, you shouldn't have these problems.
I'm with Rogers, yes it doesnt have Rogers profiles on it, however I do not have data roaming enabled and data still works fine for me (no MMS)
